Steve's mail reads pretty different from that.
But it doesn't really matter as it doesn't make any sense - as Chuck
has explained theres zero overlap between the XDR decoder changes and
pnfs features anyway. And if there was it's pretty clear something that
the about 98% of the userbase that's using NFSv3 uses should have more
priority over the 0.5% that are planning to maybe possibly use pnfs in
the next decade.
